Nicholyse 04-06-2007, 12:24 AM Oo0o0 Lucky!! That sounds like it's going to be fun! How long are you going to have to drive?
SIMMYBABEZ 04-06-2007, 12:25 AM about 5 hrs.. which isn't too bad. but i know he is going to wanna book a rental. he jumps at every chance to drive a new bmw. LOL
Nicholyse 04-06-2007, 12:30 AM Hahah.. yeah, that's what my MIL and SIL did when they went to Garmisch last year... they wore that thing out.
SIMMYBABEZ 04-06-2007, 12:33 AM Dh always gets the best model with the sunroof because he wants to show off. I had to tease him last time though, there was no key to start it up- he had to press a button- he sat there for 15 minutes trying to start the damn car. Haha
Sarah 04-06-2007, 12:42 AM OOOOOOOH! It looks so beautiful! I'm checking out the live web cam, and it's so weird to see another place in the world where the sun is shining, while it's dark here .
Have a great time!!
theElephant 04-06-2007, 12:46 AM oh fun! I think we are going up there this winter!
SIMMYBABEZ 04-06-2007, 12:48 AM Oh thats awesome Jennifer. There is Edelweiss resort too- the military one- but if you wanna go for winter- i'd book now. The rooms go so quick.
Lol sarah- the day has just broken. It got light about an hour ago and fog is starting to lift. It's going to be a BEAUTIFUL day!! YAY!!!!
Were gunna go to the big castle- the one i can't spell- but the disney one. Im so excited :D
I just told dh that were going and he goes- good bring your shorts (i don't have shorts) and your shoes cos were going hiking!!
Yayyyyyyyyyyy
Nicholyse 04-06-2007, 12:49 AM Heheh... I always thought it would be fun to have to push a button to start a car... like some batman shit or something :) You guys enjoy yourselves this weekend!
theElephant 04-06-2007, 12:50 AM LOL we can't book yet...we're just going to go with one of the ITT tours up there because they keep rooms open for them and we can book sooner.
SIMMYBABEZ 04-06-2007, 12:52 AM Ah ok!!!
I never knew that! I don't go through travel agencies- even SATO because i know they charge more then webfares and well- i don't like paying anyone commission.
theElephant 04-06-2007, 12:56 AM We'd rather not, but we don't have a choice really because of the fact that we are in a NATO unit and we won't know if he has christmas free or anything until 3 weeks in advance....
SIMMYBABEZ 04-06-2007, 12:59 AM That's true. Gotta love their short notice.
theElephant 04-06-2007, 01:01 AM Luckily it's not always, just at vertain times...
Sarah 04-06-2007, 01:10 AM Oh thats awesome Jennifer. There is Edelweiss resort too- the military one- but if you wanna go for winter- i'd book now. The rooms go so quick.

Armylove 04-06-2007, 02:06 AM Can I atleast get some directions? Weather tips? lol
SIMMYBABEZ 04-06-2007, 02:10 AM well you will probably get washed out over the UK but germany is clear.
Look to the building with a car park infront of it and army tanks surrounding it- that's all i can give u sorry.
Armylove 04-06-2007, 02:13 AM hhahahaha
MRussell 04-06-2007, 01:04 PM DH went skiing there this past winter and loved it. I haven't been yet since I'm not a skiier....but all of my friends say they have an amazing spa/resort area! Have a fun an safe trip!!
SIMMYBABEZ 04-08-2007, 02:17 PM well were here and were so thankful were not at edelweiss!!
It's a SMALLISH resort on a very small army base- it literally has barracks and across the road it's got a px and shopette and stuff... so if you want a break from the military, edelweiss isn't the place.
Were at the renaissance and it's awsome. It's actually ontop of a mountain, it's got a big lake infront of Zugspitze it has bars, sports bar & resturants. Oh and a beauty spa and health spa- so im getting a manicure tomorrow. Hehe.
Anyways- we decided to stay another nights, so we will be home tomorrow. I saw the Neuschwenstein castle and it's pretty- but it's not like i imagined. I love the mountains though!!!
I'll talk to yas later!!
Germanchick 04-08-2007, 02:21 PM Good to hear that you're having a great time!
christymichelle 04-08-2007, 02:22 PM have fun
